How shutter motor replacement works, and what to ask for
Industrial direct-drive motors can be replaced with a matching or compatible unit on most doors. Limits are set on installation so the curtain stops at the right point at the top and bottom.
Some replacement motors have built-in obstacle detection, which adds protection on doors without a safety edge. After a new motor is fitted, safety devices and limits are tested before handover.
Specification options
- Motors matched to curtain weight
- Direct-drive and chain motors for industrial doors
- Tube motors for domestic and shop shutters
- Limits set and tested
- Smart and timer control options
- Key switch, remote and receiver upgrades

Rules in Wales
Safety of powered shutters
Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Aberystwyth?
Yes. Aberystwyth (SY23) is within our Dyfed coverage, along with the rest of Dyfed.
Can you fit a motor to a different make of shutter?
Usually yes, by matching the motor size and torque to the barrel and curtain.
Can I add remote control when the motor is replaced?
Yes, many replacement motors and controllers support remotes, timers or app control.
Do I need a new key switch too?
Not always. If the switch works and is compatible, it can stay. Worn or weather-damaged switches are often replaced at the same time.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
Do your guide prices include VAT?
Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
